Slow mosey around the perimeter of the parking lot, then circle up near COT for the following
WARMUP:

  • 20 SSH
  • 10 Windmills
  • 20 MNC
  • 15 Strawberry Pickers
  • 20 OH clamps

Then mosey over to the start of the WEP loop near the parking lot.
THE THANG:
5-25-250
In honor of Memorial Day (5-25) and the 250th Birthday of the United States of America
Run the WEP sidewalk loop. Start at the bathroom side so we get that nice uphill There are 11 swing stations. Run between stations. Stop at 10 of them, then do 25 reps of each of the 5 exercises at each of the 10.

  1. Merkins
  2. Mountain climbers
  3. LBC
  4. LSS
  5. Imperial walkers

At one station about halfway through we stopped to talk about the history of Memorial Day.
So mathing things out
5 exercises
25 reps each
10 stations
250 reps total of each exercise
By the time we got back around to the amphitheater it was 6am on the dot.

Simple yet effective. Repetition seems boring but doing max reps of an exercise, until it burns, builds tolerance, endurance, strength. We hit all major muscle groups. Got smoked.
MARY: no time
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Alot going on. Read the newsletter and get involved.
COT:
Alot lifted up. Family health issues, kids, parents, teachers finishing school; anniversaries; sons going into harm's way to help others; PAX health both mental and physical; and more.

Thanks for the opportunity to lead.

Cold buckets

Leave a comment

WARMUP: We did a few things
THE THANG: One bucket at the bottom of the hill, one at the top.

The PAX enjoyed selecting pre printed slips of various exercises to execute and perform to perfection. The slips did not include anything too miserable for a 18 degree morning so we believe all survived. A nice coffee was provided postgame by <@U06RH8NQ44A>
MARY: SSH’s while Pusher retrieved the distant uphill bucket.

<@U035XDY7ABC> provided encouraging anecdotes from his recent trip to train awesome friends in Cuba :pray: <@U04GQT8NQ4C>
ANNOUNCEMENTS: A few
COT: Praise for those in Cuba, for grandchildren, and for the Lord giving us the privilege of being alive in His creation in the pre dawn 18 degree air.
